He’s My God

When times are getting desperate
And I don’t know what to do
I have a friend in Jesus
Who always brings me through

He’ll scale the highest mountain
He’ll calm the raging sea
He’ll walk across the water
To come and rescue me 

My God is amazing
My God is glorious
My God surrounds me with His mercy
And fills me with His love
My God rules the heavens
My God tames the seas
My God makes molehills out of mountains
And always is enough
He’s my God

There’s nothing that can stop
Nothing holds Him back
Nothing overtakes Him
No power that He lacks
No one can defeat Him
No one can dethrone Him
Forever more He’ll be Lord of Lords
And King of Kings

There’s nothing that can stop
Nothing holds Him back
Nothing overtakes Him
No power that He lacks
No one can defeat Him
No one can dethrone Him
Forever more He’ll be Lord of Lords
And King of Kings

My God is amazing
My God is glorious
My God surrounds me with His mercy
And fills me with His love
My God rules the heavens
My God tames the seas
My God makes molehills out of mountains
And always is enough
He’s my God

He fills me with His love
He will always be my God

The Master Painter

I sit and watch
As sunset approaches
Scattered clouds above the western horizon

A ribbon of gold touches the bottom clouds
He spreads upward
Around the dark clouds
Bright and shimmering
Outlining and silhouetting

Suddenly a blaze of brilliant gold
Rays peek through
To touch a higher cloud with gold

Sun sinks deeper
Red starts to color he lower clouds
As Gold starts to relinquish its power

Red, orange, pink, yellow
An incessant palate
Changing minute to minute
Reaching across the sky
Until it reaches above me
Behind me

Then slowly the colors fade
From west to east
Into gray
As the last rays
Leave the clouds

Oh. What a thrill
To watch the Master painter
At work

If Only

Sometimes in the night He calls to me
Reminding me that He will meet my needs
Whispering He's come to give me peace
If I'll only walk each day with Him

Sometimes in the day He calls my name
Reminding me that I am not the same
Whispering he took my guilt and shame
If I'll only make Him Lord of my life

He leads me by the waters sweet
He restores my longing soul
He walks with me in paths of righteousness
He's my Shepherd and my Lord
And even when I walk through valleys dark
His rod and staff are by my side
He'll anoint my head with Holy Spirt oil
And In His house I will abide

Sometimes in the quiet He speaks to me
Reminding me that he's right there withe
Whispering He'll be with me eternally
If I'll only make Him Lord of my Life

So I will sing His praise forevermore
Loud Hosanna sung forevermore
Worship His sweet name forevermore
Jesus is the Lord of my life



















Great God

What a great God you’ve been
Your mercy has freed me from sin
Your love overwhelms me within
What a great God you’ve been

What a great God you are
You placed the sun and the stars
And now you hold me in your arms
What a great God you are

What a great God you will be
You’ll come in the clouds like a breeze
I’ll fly away to be with thee
What a great God you’ll be

Never changing
Always blessing
Always my strength and my song
You lift me up
With your precious love
You’re a great God all along

It’s You I Choose

His voice spoke silently
As I awoke from my night’s sleep
Words that filtered to my soul
Words of peace and joy and hope

I knew that He was there with me
To tell me He has set me free
Free from worry doubt and fear
Free from sorrow with its tears

Oh what mercy then I felt
I stooped down and there I knelt
Quietly beside my bed
Slowly bowing down my head

Lord I don’t deserve your grace
I don’t deserve your warm embrace
I haven’t done all that you’ve asked
I’ve been too lazy in the task

As I bowed with weeping eyes
He spoke to me with words so wise
My child I paid the price for you
And now my child it’s you I choose

I choose to love you more each day
I choose to guide you in my ways
I choose to show my word to you
No matter what it’s you I choose

I wept there as I knelt in prayer
I felt His spirit in the air
He chose me to be His child
All my sins He reconciled

Because He’s done so much for me
From now on it’s my heartfelt plea
To do all that He asks me to
So now my question is will you?

In the morning skies
In the clouds that rise
In the stars at night
In the bright sunlight
In the morning dew
In the flowers hue
In the world around
I see you

All creation is your masterpiece
Declaring who you are
Precious Lord make all aware
Of your mercy and your love

In the rain drops splash
In the winds that lash
In the birds that sing
In the eagle’s wings
In the brook that flows
In the corn that grows
In the world around
I hear you

All creation shows your majesty
Help us all to be amazed
At the wonder of your love for us
And the reaches of your grace

Merry Christmas

An Amazing Year

When look back on this year
And all God’s done for me
I just cannot get over
His generosity

First there was my cancer
Which was destined to go
I am in remission
I saw the end of chemo

In spring we got a puppy
It’s been years since we have one
The joy that he has brought us
Just cannot be outdone

He had me write a book
From notes made long ago
It started early in the year
It’s published now you know

My granddaughter was sinking
Under weight of troubled life
She came to live with us
And now is free from strife

To have a teenage girl
Again in this old house
Has brought a sense of peace
To me and my spouse

There are so many ways
That this year has been blessed
I pray that you have found
His mercy you possess

He died to take your sins
And free you from your pains
Will you please give Him praise
And make Him Lord again

I just can’t get over His love
It reaches to me from above
It touches my soul
It makes me whole
His great love is more than enough

I just can’t get over His grace
It reaches to me in this place
By grace i am saved
Grace showed me the way
His grace showers blessings my way

Over and over and over again
He reaches down from His throne
Time after time He is there for me
He never will leave me alone

I just can’t get over His mercy
When I’m weak He comes and defends me
His blood cleansed my sin
His love brought me in
His mercy is there to forgive me

When I feel unloved He loves me
When I feel unblessed He blesses
When I feel I’ve done too much wrong to survive
His mercy is there
No need to despair

Over and over and over again
He reaches down from His throne
Time after time He is there for me
He never will leave me alone

Your Choice

Leave a reply

We are not robots
Not programmed for life
Not controlled by another
Not hard wired to a specific task
Not bound to a certain set of rules
Not mindlessly obedient

We are human beings
Independent
Determined to our own way
Free to choose our destiny
Free to decide our path
Free to walk where we want to walk

God created us
To love Him
But to make our own choice
Salvation is free
But not mandatory
You can choose
Heaven or hell
It’s up to you
What will you choose

Jesus Life

Unexplainable

Leave a reply

Sometimes I can explain and other times I can’t
The science of this world is not enough
It can only go so far
To explain the sun and stars
But just cannot explain my Father’s love

They say it was a big bang that started everything
And all creation came from not a thing
But then they say that something
Cannot come from nothing
It seems they just can’t grasp a lot of things

Perhaps it was a big bang that began the world we know
It happened in the blink of an eye
The Father spoke the Word
Let there be Light was heard
And all the universe came into sight

But to explain a Father that would give His only Son
To die a painful death upon a tree
To save a sinful soul
To come and make us whole
I can’t explain His ardent love for me

So when you talk of science and logical response
Just remember that He died to give you life
It just does not make sense
For God to recompense
This kind of love for one’s who cause Him strife

We all were sinners lost with no hope for future life
Hell and it’s torture was our destiny
But God did send His Son
He was the only one
Who could give eternal life to you and me

So today I ask you please to put aside that hardened heart
And accept what Jesus did for you and me
Because science can’t explain
His purpose and His plan
It’s faith that will decide your destiny
